Great job! You made the drip rails and door trim line up beautifully.

Re: MiniDreams Last Ride !

Already looking real nice! This looks like a big model, is it going to be an ambulance or hearse?

Re: MiniDreams Last Ride !

this thing looks GREAT! The only thing that jumps out at me is the line for the rear door. The curve just feels un natural

Seeing that he took out the rear end of the ambulance to make a more luxurious looking version of that, and the way he calls it "his last ride" makes me think its either an ambulance or a hearse, slightly more likely the latter. (No offense to mindreams!!) In fact, this car reminds me of the hearse in Grand Theft Auto Vice City that keeps dropping coffin bombs in a mission!

I think the stock wheels are fine as is. =)

Dang, why don't you hurry up and do some work on some models, you take to long! haha

It looks spetacular! How did you sand it? The good old method,or did you use some machine to sand the roof? It looks soo smooth!

Great job!

"pimpin up daisies" That's classic, and so suiting. Could you imagine the sound system that could be installed in a hearse?!?!
